This week marks 23 years of groundbreaking astronomy for the Hubble Space Telescope. After a rocky start that required a dramatic repair mission by shuttle astronauts, Hubble has been a remarkable success, changing science's view of the universe, and helping to bring the public a new appreciation of the complexity and beauty of Creation.
Hubble is still going strong, too-- still helping to push out the boundaries of human knowledge. In a few years, funding and fuel will run out on Hubble, but, for a while longer, it should continue to produce world class data.
